Effect of the rotation, tidal dissipation history and metallicity of stars on the evolution of close-in planets
Emeline Bolmont, Florian Gallet, Stéphane Mathis +2
Since 1995, numerous close-in planets have been discovered around low-mass stars (M to A-type stars). These systems are susceptible to be tidally evolving, in particular the dissip…
The habitability of Proxima Centauri b II. Possible climates and Observability
Martin Turbet, Jeremy Leconte, Franck Selsis +5
Radial velocity monitoring has found the signature of a ~M planet located within the Habitable Zone (HZ) of Proxima Centauri \citep{Anglada16}. Despite a h…
The habitability of Proxima Centauri b. I. Irradiation, rotation and volatile inventory from formation to the present
Ignasi Ribas, Emeline Bolmont, Franck Selsis +9
Proxima b is a planet with a minimum mass of 1.3 MEarth orbiting within the habitable zone (HZ) of Proxima Centauri, a very low-mass, active star and the Sun's closest neighbor. He…
Water loss from Earth-sized planets in the habitable zones of ultracool dwarfs: Implications for the planets of TRAPPIST-1
Emeline Bolmont, Franck Selsis, James E. Owen +4
Ultracool dwarfs (UCD; K) cool to settle on the main sequence after 1 Gyr. For brown dwarfs, this cooling never stops. Their habitable zone (HZ) thus s…
Habitability of planets on eccentric orbits: the limits of the mean flux approximation
Emeline Bolmont, Anne-Sophie Libert, Jérémy Leconte +1
Contrary to Earth, which has a small orbital eccentricity, some exoplanets discovered in the insolation habitable zone (HZ) have high orbital eccentricities (e.g., up to an eccentr…
A map of the large day-night temperature gradient of a super-Earth exoplanet
Brice-Olivier Demory, Michael Gillon, Julien de Wit +11
Over the past decade, observations of giant exoplanets (Jupiter-size) have provided key insights into their atmospheres, but the properties of lower-mass exoplanets (sub-Neptune) r…
